Default 04 Deuce

I have a Harley Davidson Softail Deuce 04 and I have replaced the fuel pump regulator spark plugs fuel injectors.. and every time I take off and give it a little gas it try’s to turn off like if it’s not getting gas I need help tired of paying a person to fix it if it’s something small

Why did you replace the fuel pump regulator and the injectors?

Was there another issue that led to those repairs?

Assuming the "every time I take off and give it a little gas it try’s to turn off like if it’s not getting gas" is a new issue that started after the last repairs, I suspect those repairs are related to the new issue...

While it is totally possible that a new issue has just surfaced, in my experience, a new issue after repairing or modding one of my bikes is usually related to the something I touched, changed, or handled during the previous work...

If you paid to have someone do the previous work, have them fix it... Tell the shop it wasn't fixed properly and you want them to check their work.... on THEIR dime.. If they won't stand behind their work, time to get a new shop!

If you did the work yourself:

Start with a fuel pressure test at the tank fitting. If good, that would confirm all is well with the tank/pump/hoses/regulator systems. Then you could check from the tank to the throttle body: fuel hose/fuel rail/ injectors.

Good luck with your repair and let us know what you eventually find out...

Because of the Deuce having a stretch tank . The interior corrugated high-pressure hose off the fuel pump rubs on the top of the tank , right where the Quick disconnect is . Once a hole is established you lose fuel pressure and you have problems because to hole will only keep growing .
So do some searches on this for tips and advice on the best repair.

tip #1 , cover the New hose where it rubs with a small piece of the old hose for better longevity .

tip #2 you will need New Vitan O-rings for the disconnect when you take it apart .

I do have a 2005 Deuce and have posted good info on this problem .
